10 months schedule
What's everyone's eating schedule at 10 months?
DD is 10 months and started cutting back on her formula intake. Used to take 28 to 30 oz, but now it's down to 21-24.

Re: 10 months schedule
21-24 oz is still within the avg range. I transitioned my kids to milk around the 11-12 months. As long as she is getting enough fluid via formula/milk + water in a cup and she eats a variety of table foods she should be fine. Pediatrician cap cows milk intake at 24 oz to prevent iron depletion any way so her reducing to 24 oz of formula a couple months prior wouldn't be a big deal if she is a typical baby. My feeding schedule was 3 meals of table food and 3 8 oz bottles at that age, when I transitioned to milk in a bottle at 11-12 months it was the same schedule until about 15-16 months when I switch to milk in a cup, then I did 3 meals, 2 "snacks" with milk in a cup offered at breakfast and during snack time. One of kids (now almost 5) stoped drinking milk at the transition to milk in a cup, the other (now 20 months) drinks maybe 10oz/day of milk in a cup.

10 months schedule
We followed "food before one, just for fun" so her diet was primarily formula and a little bm at that point. We'd give her foods to eat but not 3 meals a day. Mostly just dinner.

21-24 sound about right. Is ur little one eating table food?
I also followed food before one is just for fun. By the time my DS was 10 months, he was already eating the same thing as my DH and I, but if for whatever reason he wasn't interested in a specific meal, it wasn't a big deal since our focus was formula, this was til he turned 1, then we switched to whole milk. As for right now he eats 3 meals a day, a couple of snacks throughout the day, and a bottle in the morning and another one at bedtime.

If she wasn't eating a variety of foods by 1, did you not transition to cows milk right away? How were you sure she was getting the proper nutrients each day?
Curious bc I find solids to be a PITA and and looking for a different way to go about it this time. My 1st DD is a fantastic eater though so I'm hesitant.

Did u transition to cows milk already? If ur DD just turned one, u don't have to switch right away, u can do it gradually, this can give u more time to continue offering a variety of food to see what she likes. U can also try giving her vitamins. I use ChildLife Essentials Multivitamins and Minerals.
Also keep in mind that once babies become toddlers, they might get weirdly selective about food, they might randomly not eat something they enjoyed before just because they don't feel like it (this drives me nuts), just keep being consistent and keep offering a wide variety of food. They usually outgrow this anywhere from 4-5 yrs old, I know, this seems so far away  but don't give up, we can do it!

Re: 10 months schedule
thanks everyone! glad to know. (I cant remember how my now 5 year old was. seems like forever ago and they are SO different!!)
right now she eats 3 meals a day, plus four 7 oz bottles (which she's either not finishing or just not taking at all). Sometimes, if she naps too long, she'll miss out on lunch. i would still rather her get her nutrition through formula.

By 11.5 months, she started eating better. It was like a switch went off. We transitioned her to cows milk at 12m.
Now at 13m, she eats so much! She loves variety.

I would probably drop a bottle and do 3 meals and 3 8or 8 1/2 oz bottles instead of 4 7 oz bottles that she's not even finishing.
